Deions Jackie Robinson Tribute Banned by NL Rules
The National League ordered Deion Sanders to wear the Reds uniform with sleeves matching his teammates, deeming his sleeveless jersey and knee-length pants inappropriate. NL VP Katy Feeney said sleeves must be similar in length to teammates, while pants length was not restricted. Sanders and Reds officials expressed regret but will comply to honor Robinson within league rules.
